Lost 96lbs and made top 10 in physique contest...

Turkey Chili, each serving is nearly 3 lbs of food. NO JOKE. 3 lbs. of food is hard to eat in one sitting so I suggest eating half portions and adding protein shakes to supplement the food. Macros per serving as I need them to be are 94c/20f/55p.:drinker:

Here we go...................

Here are the macros. Don't be fooled at the 94c/20f/55p. This will fill your stomach and leave you breathless and sleepy feeling.:laugh:




Very easy to make. Minimal measuring. The bulk of your ingredients are right here from Costco.




your choice and amount of ground cumin. I like a lot.




1 package of Jennie-O ground turkey 93/7. I guess you can get the dish leaner if you use the 97/3. Either way, fit it into your macros. You could get the leaner turkey and to be honest, you won't taste the difference.




15ml of this stuff













put all corn and beans into a strainer and rinse/drain the liquid.




here they are drained, mixed, and ready to plop into the pot.




saute onion, with garlic with 15ml of oil. (measured using couch syrup cup).




add the three cans of diced tomatoes




add zucchini




mix...




add the legumes....




For size reference, the pot is actually pretty big and takes up some space. Our stove is 8 burners big with two of the burners converted into a griddle.




Looks like a lot of food right, but wait, time to add water and simmer for about 10mins.




water added............................................




simmering for 10mins or so. Keep in mind, nearly fills the entire pot. Keep in mind this is 4 servings worth with macros of 94c/20f/55p...




Since I was simmering this pot for 10mins or so, I moved it to a different burner and again for size reference. It's not a small pot.




I measured all the chili and three "servings" is for me and one serving for the family put in two smaller containers. You can see one of the smaller containers in the upper left.




THE WEIGH IN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Here's the kicker. Each serving is 94c/20f/55p with 26g of fiber in one sitting and the whole thing weighs 1,228 grams OR 1.228 Kilograms. Yeah, Kilograms...:bigsmile:




Don't like Kilograms? One serving of Turkey Chili is about 2lbs and 11.3 ozs PER SERVING. That's nearly 3 lbs of food. Macros again are 94c/20f/55p.:glasses:




I add this because I like spicy foods.




macros are 0/0/0





If you've ever eaten close to 3 lbs of food in one sitting it is not fun.:sick: So What I did was partition this out in half servings so the macros per container above are 47c/10f/28p and I vacuum seal them and into the freezer they go. If you are low-carbing it, then one of these smaller containers with macros of 47c/10f/28p would be fine but it lacks protein so a whey protein shake would be nice for another ~24g of protein. Now, into the freezer they go for easy of eating later (wife loves it as she doesn't really have to cook).




ENJOY FOLKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks for sharing. You always post the best things

why thank you... Cookie Crisp N Cream Ice Cream is my next project, but I haven't had the time to get all the ingredients yet.

Terrific documentation all the way through. I will refer back many times. Mostly for the information Sometimes just to ogle. Thats your own darn fault! (Don't worry, I'm 60!)

Yes. The blood test results and what not and future updates will be posted as well.

Found some older pictures of me using all 4 grills making not-so-healthy foods for a family party (I was about 240lbs in that photo, down from 270lbs)


Getting the fire started and tamed. The big Ranch kettle was used to grill while the two regular web grills was used for rotisserie and the smoker was to smoke something like 6 or 7 pork butts for pulled pork goodness <

trying to drool, but there's no drool smiley face.




Grills..............................................................................
